Hand and Foot Studies

Figure 1. Foot Study

Figure 2. Hand Study

Just a couple of sketches here trying to get down the shape/makeup of some of the key parts of the anatomy that I'd like to focus on. Giraffes evolved over hundreds of millions of years into cloven hoofed animals, gradually evolving from walking on five digit feet to only walking on two digits, the remaing three fingers reducing in size to now being almost non existant. On a human these two fingers would be the middle and ring finger. I'm hoping to upload some sketches of Giraffe anatomy soon and my own ideas on how splicing the two anatomical designs might realistically work.
